Mukhtar's Birthday

It ain't bicycles, but it's Copenhagen! Thanks to Koll for the link. A bus driver, Mukhtar, gets the surprise of his life when a 'flash mob' (this used to be called candid camera) start singing the Danish happy birthday song for him and the festivities continue. What a lovely birthday present for the man.

Kilometres cycled by Copenhageners so far today

Copenhagenize.com is the blog of Copenhagenize Design Company. Online since 2007 and highlighting the cycling life in Copenhagen and around the world.

40 years ago Copenhagen was just as car-clogged as anywhere else but now 41% of the population arriving at work or education do so on bicycles, from all over the Metro area. 56% of Copenhageners themselves use bicycles each day. They all use over 1000 km of bicycle lanes in Greater Copenhagen for their journeys. Copenhagenizing is possible anywhere.
